Hello all,
Welcome to my first ever blog and I encourage you to read and post to my blog. I have experience with meditation and breathing exercises as I am a licensed massage therapist and have taken several yoga and pilates classes in the past. The Journey On relaxation exercise had soothing music and the man's voice was calming as well. These are important factors for me personally as I have a harder time relaxing to voices I do not find soothing. I also enjoy meditation sessions that focus on the body and/or breathing because they relax me quicker and deeper than other techniques. I found it quite easy to make the areas discussed feel very relaxed as he mentioned them. Meditation helps me to relax and I enjoy doing it, but often do not dedicate time towards it often enough. I enjoyed this exercise and look forward to more.
I have an interesting story about my lack of experience with relaxation techniques. As an athlete I've had many the massages to help sore muscles and the such but my first experience with a massage for pleasure was so foreign to me that it was hard, dare I say impossible, to enjoy myself. Relaxation and taking it easy aren't things I can honestly say I enjoy doing all that much but with this class and the information out there I do believe it important I at least keep an open mind about it all and keep trying it all. I do hope I can at least learn to enjoy the occasional massage.
